Summer.

If you were to ask me a few years ago what my favorite season was, I would've told you either fall or winter. If you were to ask me today what my favorite season is, I might still say fall but it would be very closely followed by summer.

I never used to be a big fan of summer. Sitting inside in the cold AC, feeling exhausted the second you step outside in the hot & humid weather, and the clothes, ugh always feeling too exposed. I always missed my candles, snuggly blankets, hot beverages, cozy socks, and hiding in my comfy sweaters.

But something happened over the years and I can safely say that I am a changed woman, because now I love summer. I crave summer at the end of each winter impatiently waiting for the weather to stay consistently warm. Somehow over the years, I've begun looking forward to summer.

I look forward to:

Iced coffee

Colorful shorts

Sunshine

Flowers

Sandals

Summer mornings

The beach

Adventures

Fresh produce

Sundresses

Sun kissed noses

I have a couple other honorable mentions that I like about summer that need further explaining. First, getting into hot cars. I love getting into a car that has been baking in the sun. I think it feels so good, but after about 5 seconds I am ready for the AC.

The second thing is country music. Now I am quite the novice when it comes to country music. I just recently started getting into it, so I know like nothing. But, there's something about driving around in the summer with the windows down playing a little bit of country. It just feels oh so right.
